Text
The Member will be aware that an appeal is live and ongoing and that, at this point, we have to respect that process. We see FOI requests all the time, and redactions are made for a reason under legislation and guidance. Whilst I appreciate the frustration of Members and others who cannot access all the information, all of this will be considered as part of the appeal. We need to go through that process and get to the other side of it as quickly as possible.
